    What Is George Foreman's Relationship With Bob Arum?

    Does anyone know George Foreman's relationship with Bob Arum, Top Rank, and their fighters? I just watched the weigh-in for tonight's Top Rank fights (Darchinyan vs Donaire, and Garcia vs Martinez) and George Foreman is on the stage along with the fighters. Does he manage or has he invested in any of the fighters? I'm curious about his relationship and the reason for his presence.

        He's there to cook them a meal with his ''lean mean grilling machine'' post weigh in to help the fighters refuel.

          He was promoted by Arum. Except for Oscar and Phoney Phloyd, Arum's relationships with his past fighters is very good. They respect each other.

            George Foreman makes grills, and Bob Arum smokes weed. I don't see why they couldn't be great friends at all.

              I just heard Buffer say that this card is an association with "Foreman Brother's Promotions."

                Arum has a 25% interest in Georges grill?
